ATRUE COPY CERTIFICATION ON LAST PAGE J.R. SMITH, CLERK and the completed work is distinct from the uncompleted work, FEMA only de -obligates funding for the uncompleted work. For example, if one project includes funds for three facilities and the Applicant restores only two of the three facilities, FEMA only de -obligates the amount related to the facility that the Applicant did not restore. Time Extension requests should be submitted prior to current approved deadlines, be specific to one project, and include the following information with supporting documentation: • Dates and provisions of all previous time extensions • Construction timeline/project schedule in support of requested time • Basis for time extension request: o Delay in obtaining permits ■ Permitting agencies involved and application dates o Environmental delays or limitations (e.g., short construction window, nesting seasons) ■ Dates of correspondence with various agencies ■ Specific details • Inclement weather (prolonged severe weather conditions prohibited access to the area, or adversely impacted construction) o Specific details Other reason for delay o Specific details Submission of a Time Extension request does not automatically grant an extension to the period of performance. Without an approved Time Extension from the State of FEMA (as applicable), any expenses incurred outside the P.O.P. are ineligible. 6. INSURANCE The Sub -Recipient understands and agrees that disaster funding for insurable facilities provided by FEMA is intended to supplement, not replace, financial assistance from insurance coverage and/or other sources. Actual or anticipated insurance proceeds must be deducted from all applicable FEMA Public Assistance grants in order to avoid a duplication of benefits. The Sub -Recipient further understands and agrees that if Public Assistance funding is obligated for work that is subsequently determined to be covered by insurance and/or other sources of funding, FEMA must de -obligate the funds per Stafford Act Sections 101 (b)(4) and 312 (c). As a condition of funding under this Agreement, pursuant to 44 C.F.R. §§ 206.252-253, for damaged facilities, the Sub -Recipient understands it must, and it agrees to, maintain such types of insurance as are reasonable and necessary to protect against future loss for the anticipated life of the restorative work or the insured facility, whichever is lesser. Except that the Recipient acknowledges FEMA does not require insurance to be obtained and maintained for projects where the total eligible damage is less than $5,0002 - In addition to the preceding requirements, the Sub -Recipient understands it is required to obtain and maintain insurance on certain permanent work projects in order to be eligible for Public Assistance funding in future disasters pursuant to § 311 of the Stafford Act. As stated in the Stafford Act, "Such coverage must at a minimum be in the amount of the eligible project costs." Further, the Stafford Act, requires a Sub - Recipient to purchase and maintain insurance, where that insurance is "reasonably available, adequate or necessary to protect against future loss" to an insurable facility as a condition for receiving disaster assistance funding. The Public Assistance Program and Policy Guide further states, "If the Applicant does not comply with the requirement to obtain and maintain insurance, FEMA will deny or de -obligate PA funds from the current disaster." If the State Insurance Commissioner certifies that the type and extent of insurance is not "reasonably available, adequate or necessary to protect against future loss" to an insurable facility, the Regional Administrator may modify or waive the requirement in conformity with the certification. The Sub -Recipient understands and agrees it is responsible for being aware of, and complying with, all insurance considerations contained in the Stafford Act and in 44 C.F.R. §§ 206.252-253. The Sub -Recipient agrees to notify the Recipient in writing within thirty (30) days of the date it becomes aware of any insurance coverage for the damage identified on the applicable Project Worksheets and of any entitlement to compensation or indemnification from such insurance. The Sub -recipient further agrees 50
